Denverites are a complex bunch, and a new poll from the Colorado Polling Institute reveals some fascinating contradictions. On one hand, they're feeling safer than ever before, but on the other, they're increasingly negative towards their mayor. This episode delves into the details of the poll, which shows a surprising shift in the way Denverites identify themselves politically, with a growing number of voters calling themselves socialists. But what does this mean for the city's future, and how does it relate to the mayor's favorability ratings? We'll explore these questions and more with Lori Weigel, the Republican half of the polling team at the Colorado Polling Institute.

In this episode, we discuss the latest poll results, which reveal a city in flux. From the rise of socialism to the challenges facing the city's business community, we're getting a glimpse into the minds of Denverites. We'll talk about the city's transportation issues, including the rollout of Waymo self-driving taxis and the East Colfax rail project. And we'll explore the city's top concerns, including homelessness and affordability.

One of the most striking findings from the poll is the growing number of Denverites who identify as socialists. This shift is particularly notable among young Democrats, who are increasingly disillusioned with the city's leadership. We'll also discuss the city's transportation issues, including the rollout of Waymo and the East Colfax rail project, which has faced significant pushback from local businesses.

If you want to stay ahead of the curve in Denver politics, you won't want to miss this episode. Join us as we explore the latest poll results and what they mean for the city's future.

In a shocking twist, the US government's decades-long policy of putting corn in our gas tanks is under scrutiny. This practice, which began in 2005, has been a contentious issue for years, with many questioning its effectiveness and environmental impact. Join this episode as a writer and expert weighs in on the pros and cons of this policy and what it means for our environment and economy.

The conversation centers around the use of ethanol in gasoline, specifically the E15 fuel blend, which is currently not sold year-round due to Clean Air Act requirements. Some lawmakers are pushing for year-round sales, but not everyone is on board. The discussion delves into the supposed benefits of ethanol, including lower gas prices, but also explores the potential drawbacks, such as increased costs and negative environmental impacts.

The expert argues that the production of ethanol is worse for the environment than traditional gasoline, citing issues like fertilizer emissions and water degradation. This is a crucial point to consider, especially given the current state of our fuel independence. With the US now more independent than ever, thanks to President Trump's policies, the need for ethanol is being questioned.

If you're curious about the ethanol debate and its implications for our country, tune in to this episode to hear the expert's take on the issue. Listen as they discuss the history of ethanol, its current state, and what the future might hold.

The Broncos are getting real about their roster, and it's not just about the players they've added, but also the ones they've let go. This week, the team made some surprising cuts, including two draft picks who many thought were locks to make the 53-man roster. We're joined by Ryan Edwards, co-host of KOA Sports, to break down the moves and what they mean for the team's chances in the regular season.

The Broncos' roster is looking more experienced than ever, with over 90% retention from last year's team. This was by design, as the team aimed to keep the core players who could win a championship. The rookies, however, are the biggest difference-makers, and the team's decision to keep three quarterbacks is also noteworthy. We discuss the reasoning behind these moves and what they say about the team's strategy.

One of the biggest surprises was the cut of Justin Jolie, a tight end who many thought would make the roster. Ryan shares his thoughts on why this decision was made and what it means for the team's tight end room. We also touch on the Rams' big news, with Aaron Donald coming back to the team on a one-year deal.
